Let's see how it looked on the high speed 43 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:40,280 But a closer look at the high speed reveals not much actually 44 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,500 I think we need something bigger than this firecracker. I think we do 45 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,360 Officer Smith, I think we need something a little bigger. Can you hook us up? 46 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,280 The M80 47 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,840 That ought to do it 48 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:02,320 With shockwaves apparently size matters cue the M80 49 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,480 Come on, baby 50 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,920 Oh 51 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:17,680 That was loud and interestingly I saw the fog move but not the water. Well, let's check it out on high speed. I 52 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,440 Didn't see much because you I'm seeing the smoke move around 53 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,880 See that divot there. Remember, they're looking for proof that a shockwave 54 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:34,640 differently in water to air, but the shockwaves aren't showing up on the close-up 55 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:41,400 So for a bigger boom, it's back to officer Smith the M1000 56 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,200 More but a hundred times more 57 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:53,280 Hopefully that should tie up Janie's loose threads. Oh, it's getting close 58 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,600 There comes 59 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:05,680 Whoa, I think we're going to have seen something I think so. Oh did that blow the door open? 60 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:12,040 There's water on the ceiling that's always a good sign 61 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:22,440 But once again the high-speed replay has the same problem, there's no clear shot of the shockwave 62 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,280 It's reacting but they seem to be reacting differently somehow 63 00:05:27,280 --> 00:05:29,400 Well, they're not telling us what we want to see 64 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,120 I think we're gonna have to concoct a different test if we're gonna learn 65 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:37,680 Whether or not there's a difference between a shockwave in the water and a shockwave in the air. I think you're right. We're done here, okay? 66 00:05:43,840 --> 00:05:45,840 Every day is the 4th of July 67 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:52,960 Next up the team calls for directory assistance 68 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,640 So phone book freedom, what is this one all about? 69 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,160 Okay, so this myth comes from a spy TV show and they say that if you're desperate and penniless 70 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,400 There is an easy way to make your vehicle bulletproof using phone books 71 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:06,440 That's right 72 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:11,760 If you put the phone books in the panels of your car you can actually stop non armor piercing rounds easily 73 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,600 Okay, I can see how that could work the bullet hits the car door 74 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,200 It's the metal first absorbs most of the energy in the rest gets absorbed by the phone books 75 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,680 It could work. Wow sounds like they really phoned this one in 76 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,760 Well according to this small screen 77 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:35,400 Spice scene you can bulletproof by numbers just one layer of phone books inside the doors and it's a free ride to safety 78 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:40,960 Okay, this one should be pretty simple. We get a bunch of car doors a bunch of phone books shoot out and see if they're bulletproof 79 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,640 Yeah, that's pretty much it but just to be thorough 80 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:48,920 We should fire a bunch of different types of guns because in the real world you never know what you're gonna be up against 81 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,920 All right. Well, I think our first trip should be the junkyard and we'll get some doors 82 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:58,600 They'll test this myth by the book so first things first they need something to stuff 83 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,400 Okay, my way is not working 84 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,360 So we got four doors off of this car 85 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,480 That's pretty much all we need to take down to the range. They're already hollowed out 86 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,100 So we can just stick the phone books in there. This should be a piece of cake 87 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:24,280 Back at the shop the cake comes together in what has to be the most low-tech build in Mythbusters history 88 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,640 Wait round hole square peg 89 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:32,800 This doesn't seem to fit and with one layer of phone books wedged inside the doors 90 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,840 They head for the shooting range 91 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:39,040 Guys ready to start shooting to hit the books for this experiment 92 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,520 We have car doors lined with a single layer of phone books 93 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:46,240 Which according to the myth is all it took to stop a bullet and on this side we've painted a target 94 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:52,840 Then we'll set up the doors at the end of the firing range and we'll start shooting out with a variety of guns from 30 feet away 95 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,360 We'll be firing a 9 millimeter handgun a 96 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,160 357 magnum 97 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,160 45 caliber finally 98 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:04,880 12-gauge shotgun 99 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,160 Right and before they take a shot at the myth how about a prediction? 100 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,480 We're starting out with the 9 millimeter handgun 101 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:17,120 I'm thinking two and a half inches of phone book eighth of an inch on the outside of the car door of sheet metal 102 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:23,360 Yeah, we could be bulletproof right now. All right. This is the 9 millimeter the smallest round in our arsenal 103 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,720 Here we go 104 00:08:26,500 --> 00:08:32,440 There's an entry hole, but no exit for the 9 millimeter 105 00:08:34,680 --> 00:08:36,680 Meaning that's one for the books 106 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:41,280 But can they get the same result with gun number two firing at 107 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,040 1,450 feet per second. It's the 357 magnum 108 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:53,840 Nice shot text a clean strike, but what's the verdict? No way 109 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:59,320 So it didn't make it all the way through that means the phone book actually made this bullet proof 110 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,900 The phone books blocked the 9 millimeter they blocked the 357 magnum, but I've got one of these 111 00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:11,440 45 caliber if this doesn't make it through I've been really surprised going hot 112 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,920 The bullet punched through the front panel 113 00:09:18,680 --> 00:09:20,680 But the phone book 114 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,320 That's astounding this myth is looking really good 115 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:31,440 That's three zero to the phone books the handgun rounds didn't penetrate 116 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:37,560 But next it's the toughest round so far the 12 gauge shotguns deer slug 117 00:09:39,560 --> 00:09:41,400 Nice 118 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,840 Tori's aim is dead on resulting in the first phone book casualty 119 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,200 So the 12 gauge deer slug went right through the door it went through the front panel the steel 120 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,960 Reinforcement the phone book and the inside panel now that is an intense shot 121 00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:02,000 Intense is right with the shotgun firing a 385 grain slug at 122 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,840 1,850 feet per second the phone book at last met its match 123 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,680 But now it's gonna meet its maker cuz grads packing an M14 assault rifle 124 00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:17,680 Okay, you guys ready 125 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,840 Well, no surprise that the bull went right through the door 126 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,840 I think that didn't even slow down 127 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:35,840 More like a tour through the door with a muzzle velocity a thousand feet a second faster than the shotgun 128 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:42,000 It's no surprise that this round also sailed clean through but where does that leave the myth? 129 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:48,040 So this myth is about non-hour piercing rounds being stopped by car doors filled with phone books like these 130 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:53,520 This is true the 9 millimeter the 357 magnum and the 45 caliber all handguns 131 00:10:53,680 --> 00:11:00,680 Once you get anything larger than a handgun the bullets go right through so this myth could be busted right here right now 132 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,800 Or is it coming up next in the dive to survive? 133 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:13,280 Good morning the myth busters make boom for improvement 134 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:28,720 In this movie myth our heroes take cover underwater to escape injury from a bomb 135 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,040 But could taking a dive save your life 136 00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:41,040 It's time to up the end at the myth busters home away from home a good day to blow some crap up, huh? 137 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,040 You bet 138 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,920 Blow crap up they will but this time instead of trying to visualize the shockwave 139 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:54,800 They'll measure it this plumbing equipment here is a matrix for holding together our key piece of detection equipment in this myth 140 00:11:54,800 --> 00:12:01,880 And that is this an oscico rupture disc basically a calibrated piece of aluminum foil when this is properly held 141 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:07,600 In the plumbing and it finds itself in an environment over 13 pounds per square inch of pressure it will 142 00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:14,640 Burst telling you that if you were standing where this disc was you'd encounter physical injury 143 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:20,560 And our regular explosives expert JD has the C4 to test them 144 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,080 That may blow up but it 145 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,400 JD it's not very pretty 146 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,760 Better make a one like the cartoons. Yeah 147 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,680 Have no doubt in my mind you're gonna get that roadrunner this time 148 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,880 Then it's over to Adam to explain exactly how this all fits together 149 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:43,180 We're going to ignite this calibrated block of C4 and it will generate a pressure wave 150 00:12:43,180 --> 00:12:48,960 A quite a dangerous pressure wave that will burst some but not all of the burst discs in this line 151 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:55,560 Let's say it bursts all of them up to here and none after that that tells me that this point is the farthest point at which 152 00:12:55,560 --> 00:13:00,800 That explosive generates a dangerous injurious amount of pressure. Are you ready? 153 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,160 All right JD go ahead and light it 154 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,760 This is calculating 155 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,760 injurious distance of C4 156 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,440 We're gonna feel this one. Yeah, I think so 157 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,920 Wow that was a rush. No wake you up in the morning. Let's go check them out 158 00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:31,620 Great one act me explosion down and the mythbusters have the dangerous distance data they need 159 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,120 All the way up to here 160 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:41,260 Ten feet is it then that's our danger zone our danger zone. All right ten feet now. It's time for phase two 161 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:50,760 What we want to know is how well an explosion that occurs in the air can make the transition 162 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:57,760 Into the water and how potentially dangerous that it would be and to find out the guys rejig their rig 163 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:05,000 So that for blast to it can simultaneously monitor the effect of the shockwave in air and in water 164 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:10,280 So what's this test about? It's actually pretty simple one burst disc in air 165 00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:17,260 One burst disc in water if there's any truth to this myth what we should see when we set up that explosive is that this first 166 00:14:17,260 --> 00:14:19,260 Disc will blow and this one will not 167 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,720 Okay, take it up 168 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:26,220 Well, it's time to put that theory to the test with the same amount of C4 169 00:14:26,420 --> 00:14:30,920 10 feet away from the two pressure discs go for it JV light it up 170 00:14:32,980 --> 00:14:38,920 There it goes I don't know about you, but I'm predicting that there will be a difference. I think so 171 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,020 I'm just thinking about the shockwave. That's a this is invigorating 172 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,400 Oh 173 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:03,080 Good morning, yep, I should do it now to find out how the burst discs compare 174 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,320 To blown burst discs 175 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,520 To intact burst discs 176 00:15:14,260 --> 00:15:22,740 Nice, that's what I call a result there might be something to this after all at a look at the high speed confirms Jamie's suspicions 177 00:15:23,580 --> 00:15:28,760 This high speed shot tells the whole story the rupture disc in the open air is burst immediately and 178 00:15:28,980 --> 00:15:32,780 Cleaned through as opposed to the one in the water which is affected 179 00:15:32,780 --> 00:15:38,820 But only with a ripple and an instant later now what this tells us is that the water is actually 180 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:44,240 Diminishing the shockwave it's slowing it down and making it much less powerful 181 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:51,240 It's looking good for the myth the water does appear to dampen the shockwave and reduce the risk of injury 182 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:56,100 But they won't know for sure until they go full scale. So based on this test 183 00:15:56,100 --> 00:16:02,200 I figure we should take tanks of water out whenever we do tests with explosives, you know, get into the tanks 184 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,000 That's a great idea. I know that one was cool 185 00:16:06,180 --> 00:16:11,540 And if you want to see what I'm talking about go to discovery comm slash myth busters and check it out 186 00:16:17,700 --> 00:16:24,980 When you're making a quick getaway from gun totem bad guys a little extra protection goes a long way 187 00:16:25,220 --> 00:16:29,020 But so far in this budget bullet proofing saga 188 00:16:30,980 --> 00:16:33,500 The phone numbers just don't add up 189 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:41,800 The myth is that a single layer of phone books when added to a car door will make an impenetrable barrier to bullets 190 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:47,000 This is busted both our deer slug and our m14 round went clean through 191 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,280 And though that may be true for a single layer of phone books 192 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:58,480 How many phone books deep are we gonna have to get to make our car bulletproof for the high-powered ammunition? 193 00:16:58,700 --> 00:17:04,460 So we're gonna carry on it's obvious that we need more phone books 194 00:17:04,460 --> 00:17:10,540 So what we're gonna do is we're gonna take the same doors stuff for the phone book and add more phone books tend to be exact 195 00:17:10,940 --> 00:17:15,740 And see if that's enough to make our cars bulletproof against these higher powered weapons 196 00:17:16,540 --> 00:17:21,380 The mythical one layer of phone books is busted, but by how much? 197 00:17:23,100 --> 00:17:27,540 Okay, this is deer slug into 10 phone books behind the car door 198 00:17:28,540 --> 00:17:30,540 I 199 00:17:30,980 --> 00:17:35,860 Shack once again the slug blew through the door phone book combo 200 00:17:35,940 --> 00:17:41,140 But how many more books did it take to stop it just one into the auto section? 201 00:17:43,860 --> 00:17:48,060 So it looks like two phone books is all you would need to stop a deer slug not bad 202 00:17:48,060 --> 00:17:52,580 But there's still that top gun to go. I think this is gonna cut right through 203 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:58,840 Well hold the phone because it looks like Tori may have been wrong 204 00:17:59,180 --> 00:18:02,280 There it is still warm and we got 205 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:08,200 Almost to the back side of the first phone book plus the one nestled inside the door 206 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:15,560 That's still only two phone books to stop an M14 bullet. I thought it would easily have gone through half that stack 207 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,380 I thought it was gonna go through the whole stack 208 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:22,440 I mean that's it two layers of phone books and you can turn your car into a bulletproof vehicle 209 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,160 After a hard day shooting the myth is busted 210 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:31,920 But only just and that's giving the mythbusters something to think about 211 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:36,080 So the idea that you can bulletproof a car door with one phone book 212 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,120 Totally busted. Yes, but I don't think we can leave it there. Go on 213 00:18:40,120 --> 00:18:44,000 I think since we were able to stop all the bullets using two phone books in the doors 214 00:18:44,020 --> 00:18:50,500 This whole idea of a bulletproof car using phone books is possible. I say we try to build one a whole car. Yeah 215 00:18:51,140 --> 00:18:55,500 Completely bulletproof. Yep. I love it. Okay, but I see there are two problems 216 00:18:55,780 --> 00:19:00,380 First we've established that it takes two phone books to armor a door. What about the windows? 217 00:19:00,980 --> 00:19:04,940 Second we may need so many phone books that the car is too heavy to drive 218 00:19:05,060 --> 00:19:07,980 So we find out how many phone books it takes to bulletproof a window 219 00:19:07,980 --> 00:19:11,100 We do a little math and we find out if you load this thing up with phone books 220 00:19:11,100 --> 00:19:14,400 Well, it's still drive. All right, and then we build a bulletproof car 221 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:21,200 Touries all fired up, but before any overhauling they're looking into those windows 222 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:29,580 Just how many phone books will it take to make them stop a slug to find out carry and Tori position 223 00:19:29,580 --> 00:19:34,960 10 phone books behind the glass and take aim with the mighty M14 224 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,760 Three two one 225 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:44,500 It looks like it went through three phone books, let's go take a look. Oh, yeah 226 00:19:45,060 --> 00:19:47,060 Three phone books is right 227 00:19:49,940 --> 00:19:54,820 But there's a problem three phone books deep inside the car is 228 00:19:55,340 --> 00:19:57,340 Pretty much gonna crowd the driver out 229 00:19:57,340 --> 00:20:02,960 Right, there's not much point in bulletproofing if the driver won't fit so to give him some room 230 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,780 They try a sandwich formation two on the outside and one on the inside 231 00:20:09,860 --> 00:20:12,460 In three two one 232 00:20:14,060 --> 00:20:17,940 But unfortunately it blasted out the backside 233 00:20:19,020 --> 00:20:22,820 The bullet makes a meal of the sandwich, but that's crazy 234 00:20:22,820 --> 00:20:27,180 I mean, it's the same amount of material that it's passing through its three phone books and a pane of glass 235 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,640 Well, I guess that means that when the bullet hits the window 236 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:37,320 Which is a hard surface that deforms and then just gets absorbed into the back three and that's key 237 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:43,760 When the bullet hits a rigid surface like metal or glass first it expands a large part of its energy 238 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,040 But when the bullet hits the flexible phone books first 239 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,840 Less energy is expended and it can continue along its trajectory 240 00:20:52,740 --> 00:20:58,760 So what they need to know now is how many phone books in front of the glass will stop the slug 241 00:21:00,260 --> 00:21:02,780 In three two one 242 00:21:04,340 --> 00:21:10,580 Did that go all the way through I sure hope not well actually the bullet made it through four and a half phone books 243 00:21:11,140 --> 00:21:13,900 More than double the phone books needed for the doors 244 00:21:14,300 --> 00:21:20,260 Do you know how heavy it's gonna be to cover every single window surface with five phone books? 245 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,700 That's better than ten phone books. Okay, bright side boy 246 00:21:26,360 --> 00:21:28,720 After the break Adam and Jamie find out 247 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:36,920 Wow that was a lot if it really is better down where it's wet 248 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,800 With a bomb about to blow and no escape 249 00:21:48,740 --> 00:21:54,780 With taking the plunge protect you from the blast Adam and Jamie are putting that to the test 250 00:21:57,340 --> 00:21:58,940 Good morning 251 00:21:58,940 --> 00:22:04,460 We've just seen that there does appear to be an advantage to being submerged when a bomb goes off the rupture disc 252 00:22:04,460 --> 00:22:08,700 That was under the water was intact the one that was in the air was ruptured 253 00:22:09,180 --> 00:22:15,860 Obviously we used a small tank though and the scale of the tank and the nature of the tank could have affected our results 254 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:21,480 So they're not definitive what we need to do now is go full-scale in an open body of water 255 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:27,120 And we're creating an aquatic rig that will give us the measurements we need both above and below water 256 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,320 This is a complicated rig with lots of parts 257 00:22:35,120 --> 00:22:39,080 Some that float and some that don't yeah 258 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,480 I know it doesn't look like much but trust me once this stuff all goes together 259 00:22:44,500 --> 00:22:48,540 You will see that there is a method to the madness you don't have to take my word for it 260 00:22:48,540 --> 00:22:51,220 Just probably one more commercial break and you'll get to see it all 261 00:22:51,860 --> 00:22:54,860 Well, actually you don't even have to wait that long 262 00:22:56,380 --> 00:22:59,320 Let's go scuba diving and blowing some stuff up all right 263 00:23:00,380 --> 00:23:05,140 With the rig flat pack it's off to location. It's a lovely lake isn't it in fact? 264 00:23:05,140 --> 00:23:11,220 It's not actually a lake. It's a man-made pit pit 232 to be exact here at Rancho Arroyo Seco 265 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,920 And the fact that it has no wildlife at all living in it makes it ideal for what? 266 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,760 Yes blowing stuff up 267 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,560 It's gonna be a good day 268 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:28,640 But before they start blowing anything up they've got to get their rig in position and make sure it floats 269 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,240 It's a dock 270 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,160 The other one will be just peachy 271 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,960 So how are we gonna test the myth that jumping in the water can protect you from an explosion in full-scale? 272 00:23:40,740 --> 00:23:43,340 Well, it all starts with a body of water and 273 00:23:44,260 --> 00:23:49,940 Continues with this platform which soon will have various types of explosives placed right where I'm sitting 274 00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:58,260 For measurement, we're using Oseco rupture discs and we're mounting them in these things and they're calibrated for 13 psi 275 00:23:58,260 --> 00:24:00,260 Which is our threshold for human injury 276 00:24:01,180 --> 00:24:05,100 We'll be deploying our rupture disc masks at five 277 00:24:05,740 --> 00:24:06,780 ten 278 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,600 Twenty and fifty feet away from the explosions 279 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,280 We're gonna be mounting these things 280 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,680 Like so on our floating mass at five feet above water 281 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,720 And if the myth is true if jumping in the water really can protect you from an explosion 282 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:35,800 We should find that one of our masks has its in-air disc burst, but the ones underwater intact 283 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:43,040 And for an in-depth result they do three tests with 50 pounds of three different explosives 284 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,940 starting with 285 00:24:44,940 --> 00:24:46,000 gasoline 286 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,400 These are the buttons arm and fire when I push these 287 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,200 50 pounds of gasoline on that tripod behind me are gonna go boom 288 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:58,080 Will it demonstrate an improvement to being underwater supposed to above water? I don't know 289 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:04,800 Well, there's only one way to find out you ready. I'm ready. I've had my coffee 290 00:25:05,580 --> 00:25:07,420 Good to blow 291 00:25:07,420 --> 00:25:12,740 With the gas bombing away on the surface of the lake Jamie utters those familiar words 292 00:25:13,700 --> 00:25:17,700 Fire in the hole fire in the hole fire in the hole 293 00:25:19,500 --> 00:25:23,900 And Adams on the button three two one 294 00:25:27,620 --> 00:25:29,700 That was a lot it was 295 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:39,040 All of our little holders are still in place, but the platform is gone 296 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:48,440 The pressure away from the gasoline may have destroyed the floating platform, but more importantly how did the burst discs fair? 297 00:25:50,360 --> 00:25:57,360 Above and below the water at 50 feet 20 feet and 10 feet. They're all intact no ruptures 298 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:01,840 are intact 299 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:09,120 At the five foot mast above water that perfect record is broken five feet away 300 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:15,320 Clean through but underwater it's a different story 301 00:26:16,360 --> 00:26:19,280 The burst discs are totally intact 302 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,360 Interesting I thought so 303 00:26:23,980 --> 00:26:28,620 It's looking good for the myth at five feet the above water disc burst 304 00:26:28,700 --> 00:26:33,700 But the ones below the surface remained intact the gasoline explosion 305 00:26:33,940 --> 00:26:38,200 Didn't really create much of pressure wave it created a nice big fireball 306 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:44,020 And I have to say that if I was near one of those I'd want to get underwater because I wouldn't get burned 307 00:26:44,980 --> 00:26:51,220 Indeed, but one shockwave does not a result make so the myth busters aren't gonna leave it there 308 00:26:53,360 --> 00:26:59,060 Next on myth busters. Can you really bulletproof a car using phone books? Oh my god 309 00:27:03,460 --> 00:27:07,960 Don't try anything you see on the show at home. We're what you call experts 310 00:27:14,420 --> 00:27:17,980 The team has their data for the automobile phone book armor 311 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:23,660 Two books behind a door and five in front of a window will pull it proof a car 312 00:27:25,360 --> 00:27:28,500 So they're about to throw the books at this 313 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:35,500 Dude nice car. Thanks, but there's a problem. What well that car's carrying capacity is 314 00:27:35,940 --> 00:27:38,540 1,800 pounds now to totally bulletproof it 315 00:27:38,540 --> 00:27:42,600 We'd need over 900 phone books which weigh more than 4,000 pounds 316 00:27:42,860 --> 00:27:46,220 So in other words what you're saying is it would be so heavy wouldn't be able to move 317 00:27:46,940 --> 00:27:53,820 Exactly the maximum number of phone books we can use and still have the car be drivable is 400. Okay, well, it's not lost 318 00:27:53,820 --> 00:27:59,260 Let's just be strategic about this.

I mean the whole ground shook 409 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:06,840 There's this big cloud of dust and basically it was that shot that stopped the vehicle man. These weapons are incredible 410 00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:09,720 incredible and lethal 411 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,640 Oh 412 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:20,160 Didn't make it I don't think anybody in there made nobody made it 413 00:36:22,720 --> 00:36:28,100 There's no denying that the phone books bit the bullet but where does that leave the myth? 414 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,720 Well, it's looking like no amount of phone books is gonna stop one of these rounds 415 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:38,280 Yeah, but up to a 50 cal this phone book armor stuff just about everything. Well, this is a perfect progression of a story 416 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:42,240 I mean with the first round of guns, we're bulletproof the second round of guns 417 00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:46,160 We're like a bullet resistant and with the final round of guns like 418 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,840 like bullet absorbent 419 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:51,560 All right, who's driving home shotgun 420 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:03,560 Up next the dive to survive finale goes off like a bomb 421 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:14,240 Jamie and Adam are having a blast 422 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:20,220 The platform is gone to find out if a quick dip could save your life 423 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,920 And now they're amping up for even more boom for their buck 424 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,000 For this blast, we're gonna use a blasting agent called amp foe 425 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:33,960 It's ammonium nitrate, which is basically fertilizer and diesel fuel now 426 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:39,360 That's gonna create a pressure wave moving out from the blast at 4,000 feet per second 427 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,440 That pressure wave is what it's gonna burst our discs 428 00:37:43,240 --> 00:37:51,080 That's the theory and with a new set of burst discs in place. They're ready for a big ampho bag. Everything's in it looks great 429 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:59,320 But how will it compare to gasoline? It's definitely gonna burst the five in the ten foot burst discs in air. I 430 00:37:59,960 --> 00:38:02,120 Don't think it's gonna burst those in water 431 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:06,840 I think this is gonna demonstrate a clear difference in the shockwave propagation in air as opposed to water 432 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:11,740 Well, all is about to be revealed as Jamie takes the controls 433 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:16,360 We're good to go.
